Service introduction
*My services are either paid ‘out of pocket’ or a portion can be billed for reimbursement with United Health Care insurance. This is the only healthcare insurance that can be used by my service’s at this time. I will post when other contracts are available to use me as a provider. I practice a fair, un-bias philosophy to every client without judgement. I respect each home as its own culture with its own individual differences and practice being 'N.E.A.R.' I will Normalize questions about everything going on during recovery while adjusting to being a new parent. I will Educate, for example, babies often feed frequently in the newborn period, and there are signs we can watch to see if feeding is going well. I will Assess things like how many wet diapers your baby had per day with how often they are feeding. And I will Refer if needed, because you may want a lactation consultation, pediatrician, massage, or herbalist. I will focus on making sure the family is fed while providing our new moms nutrients, sleep, shower time, or run errands for groceries. I will recommend specific teas and happily help with other children, family or pets to make your life easier the way you want to use my time during our contract. I offer a few different packages and am happy to discuss what will be a good fit. Thank you for taking the time to consider me and I look forward to meeting you and your baby soon.
